An Introduction to Radiation Therapy
This video is a comprehensive overview for patients who are considering radiation therapy as a treatment for their cancer. Recognizing that the video is quite long, it has been produced in eight chapters covering What is Radiation Therapy, Types of Radiation Therapy Treatments, The Radiation Therapy Treatment Team, Pre-treatment Planning, What to Expect, Possible Side Effects, Safety and Caring for Yourself. This video is available for ASTRO members to show to patients to help alleviate some of the fear of undergoing radiation therapy for treatment of their disease.

    IM GONNA DO THIS SOON. Thank you for the wonderful video. Now I know what to expect and we are not afraid that’s why we need to have these videos.

      Yes. I as well thank this channel for sharing this valuable information. I was informed just today I have lung cancer. The stage was not mentioned but the doctor who harvested the biopsy said I may be a candidate for surgery or radiation. My pulmonologist who has been watching over the spot on/in my lung for the last two or so years already advised I am NOT a candidate for surgery,, I'm 77 and have been a smoker for 50+ years. I am watching this video because I want to learn a little bit about radiation therapy in case I may be looking at this as a way to slow down or kill the cancer. Time will tell.

    I want as few people as possible involved in my care, and only the minimum necessary for safety reasons. My Radiation Oncologist has promised to respect my wishes. I was not helped by a Dietitian who gave incorrect information, and has obviously failed to read up to date scientific papers.
